Which countertops are right for you?
Choosing the right countertops for your kitchen can be a challenge! The surface you pick needs to be practical and withstand daily use while fitting in with your overall style. Whether your kitchen is a place to create homemade family meals every night, an area to entertain guests, or a little of both, we’ll help you find the right countertop for your budget!
When considering your options, think about how much you use your counters and how much routine maintenance you want to do. Some porous stones require regular sealing, while you can simply wipe down other materials. You'll also want to keep your budget and the type of style that will fit in with your room in mind. But, don't worry! JK Carpet Center will help you find just the right counters for your space.
Granite vs. quartz countertops
Granite countertops offer beauty and durability. It's no wonder they're in high demand! Granite is a natural stone that is cut into slabs and then polished for installation. Granite offers natural color variations, ranging from earthy tones to more eye-catching blues, greens, and rose-colored hues. Granite can be expensive, but it's heat and scratch-resistant. This kind of countertop will need to be resealed regularly.
Quartz countertops are engineered stone and are similar to granite in both appearance and performance. Quartz is manufactured using a mix of crushed quartz and colored pigments bound together with resin. This allows for a wide variety of colors in quartz countertops that you won't find in granite. Quartz is also very heat, scratch, and stain-resistant.
